Bio

I am the CEO and Founder of Phixey and Phixey Wireless. As a child I always dreamed of creating a business that could benefit everyone, not just a small group, but everyone. A business that involved a product that everyone used, my thoughts at the time were water or toilet paper. This business had to be one-of-a-kind, save people money, and be so incredible that everyone wanted it. Fast forward over my 40-year career; the creation of Phixey. Phixey was created to give people peace of mind in the use and ownership of electronic devices.

I understand that such dreams can be achieved only through hard work, determination, and a systematic process designed and planned with considerable time and effort. As a natural problem solver and a professional determined to improve the cell phone repair and device insurance industries my goal was to simplify the existing process and save people money.

Phixey was not the first time I managed to convert ideas into reality. Through various leadership roles throughout my career, I helped businesses grow from small-scale companies to ones that have international recognition. I played a pivotal role in taking Techy from a single-store operation to a highly successful franchise program with hundreds of stores in eleven countries. In addition was instrumental in developing a relationship with Walmart allowing Techy to open a Techy store in any Walmart throughout the United States that has availability.

I say “It’s easy to recognize challenges; the secret is finding the hidden opportunities that will help us emerge as the leader in the industry”.

I am passionate about all aspects of life and work, but I have also prioritized my role with my family. I believe that a good family life is the key to stress free living. I am the father of three adults and the grandfather of two. I enjoy teaching them various lessons I have learned throughout my experiences, so that they grow into individuals that are passionate in all aspects of their life. When I'm not spending time with my family, I enjoys spending time with friends on the golf course.
